The objective of this exam is to encourage candidates to study kendo in all its dimensions thus allowing them to participate more fully in the cultural evolution of their dojo and the entire kendo community.

Please limit each response to 300 words. All candidates: Your answers should show a level of understanding appropriate to the dan you are challenging. The more senior the level, the more we expect to see your own experience reflected in your answer. Your answers should be in your own words.
